OUT! Bowled. Newman Nyamhuri to Khaled Ahmed. In-swinging half volley, to leg on the front foot Slog, missed. That's Tea on Day 1. Bangladesh have been bowled out for 140 in their first innings. Mominul Haque stood out with a fighting 60, while Shadman Islam was the only other batter to offer some resistance, contributing 20 runs. The rest of the batting lineup failed to make a significant impact as Bangladesh struggled throughout the innings. For Zimbabwe, Newman Nyamhuri was the pick of the bowlers with an impressive 4-wicket haul. Richard Ngarava, Blessing Muzarabani, and Brad Evans chipped in with two wickets each to wrap up the innings. Join us in around 20 minutes as Zimbabwe begin their reply.
